It wasn't a chance but Bairstow not taking the catch from that one that flicked Warners pad showed just how poor a keeper he is in my opinion.

I thought that. Like you say, not a chance, but if you're dropping that you're dropping proper chances at some stage.

Just dropped another straightforward one.  He looks hapless.

He's got 2 big problems for me, he doesn't watch the ball into his hands so has too many pop out of the gloves and he has a very 'heavy' stance which makes him slow to move his feet to go after wide ones.

Need to rattle through a few more.
I have a feeling Paul you would love Aussies to be 49 all out? Actually so would I ;D

Not today :(

Not quite Bazball but Warner has clearly decided they need to score quickly. Need that fucker out, sharpish.

Only kidding, so am I. Never going to be upset to see Warner out.

It's all a bit flat so far since lunch.

We need to break this partnership otherwise these two will take the test away from us.

Yes! Wood gets Smith on review, a great review, 120-3.

We badly needed that.

Jimmy has looked better today, if he can keep going as he is I suspect he'll pick something up because he's starting to get them playing a few false shots now.
